Bill has been handling my taxes for nearly twenty years. He has a deep understanding of an actor’s challenges and a constant curiosity about all the idiosyncrasies that come with a life in the business. I have recommended him many times to friends looking for a real professional, who also happens to be a lot of fun. Bill may be the only reason I could ever wish that tax season came around more than once a year!

Bill’s been my accountant for more than 10 years now. My tax situation has always been a little more complex – multiple streams of income, investments and real estate. In the mess that I feel my finances often seem to take shape of, Bill manages to patiently untangle and make sense of. I walk out of his office confident and relieved that that part of my life is has been sorted out, at least for the next 12 months. Another thing that sticks out when I think about Bill over the years, is that there’s always been the sense that he cares – not just about your taxes, but about you. And then of course I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention that it’s always fun to see his pet pot belly pig!

We have used Bill to do our taxes for longer than we can remember and we can’t imagine going to anyone else. He has helped us figure out labyrinthine problems with the IRS without fuss or worry. He is conscientious, prudent, efficient and a super-nice person on top of it all. We would recommend his services to anyone.

…knowledgeable, fair and accurate with numbers, Bill knows both the music and acting business. Not only does he effectively navigate through my complicated music deductions…he knows how to handle the returns of my children (minors) who have had success in the acting business.

One year, many moons ago, I used a popular tax prep software. It was also the year that wound up getting me an IRS lien lol. Seems the software didn’t understand multiple jobs..or the entertainment industry in general. A friend recommended Bill and I have been with him ever since…good lord…could it be 20 years? There is NOTHING that I could throw at him that he couldn’t figure out or hasn’t been seen before. I have recommended him to close friends and they too are still depending on him every year. If you have complicated tax returns or are hiding under a table from the IRS because of your lack of accounting skills, Bill is here to take care of business (and bring down your blood pressure). He knows his stuff and especially how the system REALLY works.

I’ve worked with Bill for over 20 years, he’s been great, always keeps me on track and out of troubles with my taxes, both my personal and my corporation. I definitely have a sense of security knowing he’s on my side.

It was an amazing experience! Bill was friendly, fast, and knowledgeable. He made the process so easy and fun – we almost wish we had more taxes to do! We HIGHLY recommend him!

I came to Bill after I lost my Mom. Previously I had been having my taxes prepared by H&R Block which was fine for a time. Unfortunately, they didn’t have a clue how to help someone who’d just inherited some assets and were going to have me paying far beyond what I truly would owe on my yearly taxes. A friend recommended Bill and I couldn’t feel more safe and happy having him as my tax man. I was audited for two years by the IRS recently and because of Bill’s diligence and expertise, when he met with the IRS agent for me, the case was given a pass. Phew! Bill rocks!!

We came to Bill in 2015 when we started a new corporation and he helped us navigate the muddy waters of entrepreneurship with patience and ease. He’s professional, knowledgeable, easy to work with and we’re grateful for his guidance these past few years!

We love our tax consultant, Bill. He’s fantastic. We even recommend him on Angie’s List. We’ve been using his services for 5 to 6 years now. He really knows his business and what things count and what things don’t. He’s very efficient and a super, super friendly guy. We would definitely recommend him to anyone. I must admit, I compared him to the other 2 people we’ve gone to and he’s very reasonably priced. 3 days after we went to Bill, he sent us the papers and we’ve done it all by e-mail. It’s so convenient. We just scanned the papers and e-mailed them back. He’s always available. He’s just a one-man office so he’s amazing.

We needed income tax returns prepared for a trust and for the first year of an S Corporation. Bill set everything up for us and filed the returns on time. He also provided forms that we could use for our estimated payments. I was very happy with the work he did and will use him again. He was fast and accurate and took good care of us.

He’s our dad. We love him.

He’s my brother. He’s great!
